The Audio Research REF 110 vacuum tube power amp was ARC’s top model a few years ago and was very successful for both ARC and us. It’s proven very reliable and sounds terrific. This used, one-owner model was originally sold by us and includes original box and packing. Natural silver finish with black handles, as shown. Very clean and in excellent condition. Price includes a complete new matched tube set from Audio Research, which we will install and bias on purchase.

Salamander’s Corsica 236 audio/video cabinet, from their Chameleon range, features a natural cherry finish and glass top. Dimensions are approx 67″ w x 22″ h x 21″ d. This cabinet is brand new, special-ordered for a client whose requirements changed. This is a nice piece of furniture that’s also very functional. We’ll include drop-off at no charge in the DFW area. No shipping.

The Linn Akurate DSM is one of our favorite products in the store, combining a superb network DAC, a preamp with very versatile input switching including analog, digital, and HDMI inputs, and a solid MM/MC phono stage. Linn’s network streaming solutions are a top choice for streaming music from local digital libraries or from services like Tidal and Qobuz. This used Akurate DSM is silver finish, in super-clean condition, is current spec / fitted with Linn’s latest Katalyst DAC, and includes original box, packing and remote.

Nordost’s Quantum QB8 power distribution strip takes nothing away from the music, unlike the vast majority of products in this category. This is our demo QB8 and the original MK I version. 15A power cord required- we have some good opportunities on demo and used power cords, please inquire.

Linn’s Espek speakers are one of our all-time best sellers. They’re a slim full-range floorstanding model that’s easy to position in a room and easy to power. We have a used pair in cherry, on consignment. No boxes or packing so local sale only. Unbeatable sound at the price!

Audio Research’s PH7 phono stage works well with a wide range of phono cartridges and has selectable loading via remote. This used model is one from the later production stage and has the upgraded power supply; it’s in great shape and includes original box, packing, remote and manual. Tube hours meter shows just 977.

As part of a small store remodel, we’re offering for sale our demo Da-Lite Parallax projection screen. It’s the top choice for projection screens, able to deliver a very bright and color-neutral picture while at the same time rejecting ambient room light so you can enjoy what you’re watching without requiring a totally dark room. Our demo screen is in top shape, measuring 54″ x 96″, 110″ diagonal. We recommend it with our Sony 4K HD projectors and most any others.

Please note: demonstrator units (except for furniture) typically include box, packaging, and manufacturer’s warranty, and are in excellent condition. Furniture is for local sale only, as it cannot be shipped. Used components are in good working condition, however boxes, packaging, and manuals may or may not be available, and there is no warranty unless the original manufacturer’s warranty is transferrable.
